“The range of talented artists illustrates the Show’s diversity,” says Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo President Joel Cowley. “We are welcoming new, upcoming artists as well as celebrating timeless legends.”

The entertainment lineup is one that country fans won't want to miss; together, the 21 celebrated musicians include one membership in the Country Music Hall of Fame, four in the Grand Ole Opry, 25 Grammy awards, 56 ACM awards and 38 CMA awards.

It wasn't clear if last year's slew of country stars could be beat, but the 2014 Houston Rodeo lineup already has everyone buzzing.

The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo is the world's largest livestock show and rodeo and benefits youth, supports education and facilitates better agricultural practices through exhibitions and presentation. It's certainly done a lot of good over the years -- since its genesis in 1932, the event has given more than $350 million to the youth of Texas.
